25.5 changing to 21

[donjuan]

Hi everyone,

Been a while since I have posted to this group. I think I have a good interpretation of this one, but I would appreciate any feedback.

I asked the Yi "What can I expect if I continue to hope that "she" will marry me?" and received the reply of 25.5 changing to 21.

I read this message to say "Let things happen, do not use any force or means to get it to happen (use no medicine) and that the result is that I will reach the goal (bite through).

Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!

Don

Anyone out there? I really would appreciate any feedback! Help!

Hi Don,

Sorry. I read this last night but was too dull witted to respond.

It's an interesting contrast, isn't it? One says "just be" and the other saying "do something!".

Your question likewise spreads over a wide terrain. You can expect what you make of it (21), but it's better to allow it to unfold naturally than to try to follow a blueprint of your own design (25.5).

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for your reply. With the holidays upon us, I know what you mean by "dull witted" - there is just sooo much to do.

I am going to follow the Yi's advice and just "let things happen" but always take advantage of every opportunity! I think that is the best attitude.

Take Care,

Don

Hi Don,
I would add that if you do continue to let things evolve (25) you may come to recognize a hidden obstruction between you that needs to be dealt with (21).

Hi Rosada,

Thank you for your comment. If I take the Yi's reply as advice - and I assume that is the right way to interpret it, advice, rather than a prediction of what will happen - that means that I should let things evolve, BUT be prepared for a hidden obstruction that needs to be dealt with before she and I would be married.

Do I understand this correctly? Or is the Yi saying, IF I let things evolve, I will encounter a hidden obstruction? If that is the correct interpretation, the Yi is not advising me as much as he/she is warning me.

Thoughts? Again, thanks for your feedback.

Don.

Hi Don

So much in this reading.

You asked what would happen if you continued to ?hope?? Not about action.

The response is very much about your inner stance and the way it affects your outer world of the relationship.

You are attempting to reach your goal by biting through, active tackling of perceived obstacles.(21). However you must disentangle yourself from illusions and other things you are bringing, from your past, to ?haunt? this relationship. (25)

Stop trying to bring about a cure for something which is not an illness. Just be yourself. Let things be what they are and not what you want them to be. (line 5).

By stepping outside of the way you currently see things, and by allowing them to take on their own form you will release a lot of new energy. (Crossline omen) .

The Inner change operator is 8 ? Grouping ? The need to find kin ? which drives you.

The outer change operator is 14 Da You ? great being, being great? Is the promise if you resolve this as advised by the Yi.

Here I would suggest you need to disentangle yourself from illusions and those dream images we tend to clutter relationships with? let it take its own true form? energy will be released and well Da You happens.

It appears that it is indeed your inner world which holds the key, not action in the outer world?I wonder if you sensed that when you asked that unusual question?

I wish you well.

Well, hmmm, maybe the IC is saying that as you are only "hoping" it
may be that you do not know each other all that well yet, and so the IC is encouraging you to let nature take it's course without being overly focused on marrage but perhaps a more shot term goal like a pleasant evening. As you monitor your inner feeling, noting what feels good, what feels tense you'll probably then be able to recognize what the hot bottons are between you and thus, having noted these tricky areas, be able to steer around or bite through them.

Dear Kevin and Rosada,

Thank you both, very much, for your kind words. They say very much to me. I agree, Rosada, I need to stay focussed on the "here and now" and not the future. What really caught my attention was Kevin's words of "disentangle yourself from illusions and those dream images we tend to clutter relationships with" - which says to me: "see things for what they really are, not through rose-coloured glasses" - and let things take their own form - to stop trying to influence the way things are going....

Insightful and helpful responses! Again, thank you both for your help!

Warmest Regards,

Don
